May you encounter many good sake this year as well 🐴.
The first bottle of the new year was a bottle of Mizuo's Kinmon-nishiki brewed with Kinmon-nishiki that I had been saving. I opened it in time for Osechi.
The aroma is like sweet strawberries 🍓 but when you take a sip, it is unexpectedly refreshingly sweet and acidic. This gap may be a new experience for you. It is deeply delicious.
I will definitely visit the brewery with Iiyama castle ruins next time. Of course by Hokuriku Shinkansen 😁.
I bought this as a souvenir at Nagano station. I drank it at the beginning of New Year's Day. It has a nice taste of rice, but it is refreshing and perfect for a mid-meal drink.
Kinmon-Nishiki, 39% polished rice
Umakuchi with a slight effervescence. It has a sweetness that is not typical of Nagano.
As the temperature rises, the fizziness disappears, and it is rather sweet and dry. Classy!
Today, Mizuo from Tanaka Sake Brewery in Iiyama City, Nagano Prefecture, has boldly adopted a new technique to create a low-alcohol, easy-to-drink "Breaking Dragon."❗️
The aroma is sweet with a refreshing sourness❗️As you take a sip, a sharp astringency comes to your tongue after a slight mellowness❗️A good sake for a mealtime drink❗️
